Atelier Norte, architecture and interior studio in Porto
(01) The studio
We design 
Founded in Porto in 2012 by architects Inês Duarte and Tomás Reis. Eleven people, one long table, no rush.
We take on a handful of projects each year (homes, interiors and small hospitality) and see each one through from first sketch to the last door handle.
Our work is shaped by light, local materials and the way people actually live. Nothing more than it needs to be.

(03) How we work
01
Listen
We start at your kitchen table, not ours. How you wake up, where the light falls, what you want to leave behind.
02
Draw
Hand sketches first, then models you can hold and walk through in VR. Nothing is fixed until it feels right.
03
Build
We stay on site with local builders until the last detail is done, and come back a year later to check in.
(04) Recognition
Kind words from others.
